Dive Into the Fog with “Suspense”
Ghost stories have always had a knack for pulling us into the shadows of the unknown. Among the thirteen chilling narratives in my collection Thirteen Tales of Ghosts, one story stands out for its relentless tension, psychological depth, and unforgettable twist: “Suspense.”
In this haunting tale, a man finds himself dangling between life and death—quite literally—hanging from a bridge above a misty gorge in Switzerland. But his plight is far from an ordinary accident. His predicament is the result of a chance encounter with a pale-faced woman who seems to know far more about him than she should.
As the mist thickens, so does the mystery. Who is she? Why does she hold such deep-seated anger toward him? And what role does his sordid past play in his current nightmare? With every line, Suspense grips the reader tighter, leading them toward an ending as shocking as the fall itself.
This is not just a story about supernatural vengeance. It’s a journey into guilt, memory, and the lingering ghosts of the choices we make. It’s a story where karma isn’t just an idea—it’s a chilling, vengeful presence.
If you love ghost stories that play on both the psychological and the supernatural, “Suspense” is a must-read. And it’s just one chapter in the larger anthology of Thirteen Tales of Ghosts, each story offering its own unique brand of horror.
Are you ready to step into the fog and face the spectres of the past?
